The Monitor collects metrics from databases and MobiLink servers. In this section, you start the MobiLink Synchronization Server Sample, and then add the server as a resource to be monitored. To collect metrics from a SQL Anywhere database, see Lesson 2: Set up the Monitor to monitor a database

To add a resource to monitor

1. Start the MobiLink Synchronization Server Sample.

   From the Start menu, choose Programs » SQL Anywhere 11 » MobiLink » Synchronization Server Sample.

2. Log in as the default administrator to the Monitor:

   1. Click Login.

   2. In the User Name field, type admin, and in the Password field, type admin.

   3. Click Login.

3. Click the Administration tab.

4. Click the Resources tab.

5. Click Add.

6. Select MobiLink Server, and then click Next.

7. Name the resource MobiLinkServerSample, and then click Next.

8. In the Host field, type localhost, and then click Next.

9. When you are prompted for the required authorization, in the User ID field, type a user name such as user1, and in the Password field, type a password, such as sql.

   These credentials are used to connect to the MobiLink server. The user ID and password are kept by the Monitor.

10. Click Create.

11. The new resource, MobiLinkServerSample, is created and monitoring starts.

12. Click OK.

13. Click the Monitoring tab.

    The MobiLinkServerSample resource appears on the Monitoring tab, and the collected metrics appear on the tabs in the bottom pane.
